Sneak Peek from NEC

New clear. Stamps from ahemmmm Just Inklined shhhhh

I,m chilling in my room but wanted to give you a peek of these babies, there is thirteen new clear stamps to be launched on 14th and 15th March.

I used Flexmarkers to colour up the stamps.

I also spied some new Promarkers to be released eeek!

 

 

 

Would you like?

Just wondered if you would like some pictures from the trade show, I may have some interesting finds and thought you might like to see them too?

The trade show is renowned for having new releases for the crafting world, I know we have some gorgeous stuff to release and if by chance a picture or 2 sees their way to my blog I could hardly be blamed for that, it would be my camera’s fault right?

I managed a little bike ride before I got ready to leave for Birmingham, last week I did 3.99 miles pftt if I’d only rode along the street and back I’d of gone over the 4 miles barrier.

This week I made a mental note of that before we left.

Here is the statistics

and here is the route

Don’t forget, let me know if you’d like some trade show pictures.

Trade Show here I Come!

I’m at the trade show at the NEC Birmingham Saturday to Tuesday so I’ve started to pack.

Just look at my poor FlexMarkers 

I’ll be on the La Pashe and the Just Inklined stand if you are there and want to say hello, We have a new launch in March with something actually a few things that are rather special.

It’s hush hush until then so I can’t tell you but heck I’m sure I can get away with some sneak peeks.

   

Shhhhhh!

       

Mums the word!

The Carpenter and his Apprentice

Quite inspirational how quickly one learns Jack not yet four is eager to learn and is something of a sponge taking everything in that he he told. Concentration is the key and he is relentless in his questions. I have always been a firm believer in telling children the truth when they ask a question, I know my two girls ordered it and if you tried to fob them off after they asked for an explanation on something they would accept the truth far better than a white lie.

Jack also demands this, so as best we can we try to explain things truthfully. He loves to do work of any kind, he asked his Grandad if when he slept over if he could do some work in the shed with real tools, of course his Grandad agreed not thinking that he would remember but of course he did remember and although it was a bitter cold day out they went to the shed.

look at the concentration in his little face, on the top image he even has his tongue out, both his Grandad and his Mum does this when they concentrate ha ha!

Can you believe he never hit his or his Grandads fingers even once.

I asked him what he was making, he told me it was going to be a new wall for me.

They then decided to make a sword, Grandad cut out the pieces and Jack screwed them together.

So Captain Jack now has a sword, we even cut out some stickers to decorate it.

Comfy Sofa 3D Project–Creations by AR

I know we all like to be prepared for special events, Fathers day is in June and normally lands right on my Father in Laws Birthday so it is always a double whammy for me that month two cards two gifts for the same man. I like to get organised as soon as possible for it and this template just ticked all the boxes for him.

Comfy Sofa from Creations by AR 

I had quite a bit of fun making this one and deciding colours and extra bits to add when finished.

The back of the chair and arm rest covers are an edged ribbon.

The cushion is also ribbon folded and padded inside with a piece of wadding.

Now I know you will all want to know where I got the miniature TV remote control and the miniature coffee mug from no?

Well I made them from polymer clay, it was a labour of love. I got a starter pack from Wholeport 

Then there is the miniature News Paper, it was a printable for a dolls house found at Jims Miniatures.

 

Now if all of that isn’t enough it even has a secret compartment for you to add a gift.

A pull out box from the front of the chair.

Add some treats inside the box and you are ready to go.

Cards from Create and Craft Show

I thought I should pop a couple of cards on here from last weeks Create and Craft show it was all great fun and lovely to get so many emails whilst on air.

Both cards are from the Best of La Pashe 2012 CD and you can still get both the Just Inklined and the LaPashe CDs at a knock down price until Thursday this week from here

and the inside Ohh la la!

and then a none funny one.

New Release Creations by AR–Lollipot and Bow

Oh this is so exciting, this is the cutest project, so many possibilities I know it worked perfectly for Valentines day but it would also work for Easter if you filled it with chicks or mini eggs (chocolate variety), Birthdays, Christmas etc etc… I love working with Creations by AR 

I used red, white and black for my colour ways, (Think Minnie Mouse)

It is a fun inexpensive gift that is sure to please, who would have thought a lollipop colour be so fun to give.

Birdseye view of what is side, A big lolli and some chocolate hearts.

LolliPot is available here

Its Bow Easy is available here

Now go and get inspired by the rest of the team.
